Can someone give me the low down on these kits please.

I know nothing of them

 

 

22B Bulletin Board: Water Injection

that will get you started

 

Water injection systems, Methanol injection systems : Aquamist

 

thanks mate

 

it is a very interesting concept and works well in practice too apart from having to keep topping up a water / meths tank

 

I think I might add one to the shopping list, Will there be room to mount the tank/pump under the bonnet you think or is it a boot job, cos could always get a spec c tank then, they are HUGE

 

I run aquamist, it sprays well (middle size jet), 2 gallon tank and doesn't need filling up that much (although I've not gone on hols abroad with car yet - decent miles might need a fill along the way). Get one with baffles so you dont get loss of water feed when level low and on sharp corners.

Def needs much much less topping up than 3 gallon (Spec C size) water tank which runs auto and manual IC spray on my car. Just to add, both tanks are fitted in the boot as def not enough space around engine bay for it on my motor.

Oh ps, if buy aquamist, get 3D map one and set it up - you can tell when injecting to much water by how the engine performs or during mapping.

 

What kind of % mix do you use if any.

Where can you buy methanol from and is it expensive

 

50/50 most run

£200 for about 200 litres ish

 

Hmmm, how do people go about storing 200 litres?

Or is it deliveres/bought in smaller containers?

 

You can buy it in 25L containers from Jennychem

 

So im assuming this is mapped into your car, therefore, once you start using it, you have to keep using it, or need a further remap to remove it?

 

yup,

to get the best out of it you need to map the car , have a chat to midlife as he has had very good gains from this
